67 Caught In The Act

"Grandpa, I'm feeling tired. I'll head to my room." Chu Wuyou fled from the main hall because she did not want to keep the conversation going with Elder Chu. She feared he would set off to the Ye Residence right away to propose a marriage between the two families.

A phone call from her darling daughter came through not long after she returned to the room. 

"Mommy, when are you coming home?" Tang Zhixi initiated every phone call with the same question lately.

"Mommy will be back tomorrow." Chu Wuyou knew her daughter missed her. This was the first time since her birth that both of them were separated for such a long time. She missed both her darlings dearly, too.

"Really? Mommy's really coming home." Tang Zhixi cheered out loud on the other end of the phone, "Elder Brother, Mommy's coming home tomorrow… Oh, I forgot that Elder Brother's not home."

"Where has your Elder Brother gone?" Chu Wuyou questioned.
